Stopped on Track
The win was shared with the South Korean film Arirang, directed by Kim Ki-duk.[4] The 44-year-old family man Frank Lange has a proper job and lives with his wife Simone and their children Lilly and Mika in a modern serial house when he learns he suffers with an inoperable brain tumour and has only but a short time left.Eventually he grows too weak to leave the house and has hallucinations during which his tumour seems to appear as a vain actor in a late-night talk show hosted by Germany's established TV presenter Harald Schmidt.The tumour deprives Frank from memory, orientational ability and even control of basic body functions.Fighting the pain with always stronger doses of morphium he loses his true personality and finally his speech.
